There's nothing more exciting than creating a baby registry for organic clothing! For many new parents, it's when reality starts to set in. It can be overwhelming. You'll need a ton of essentials to welcome your bundle of joy into the world, including clothing to keep them safe and warm.

But what size should you put?

Think Big

Having some clothing that fits newborn babies is always a good idea. But you have to remember that babies grow fast! Unless your baby is born prematurely, you can expect them to outgrow newborn clothing within the first month. Many babies even outgrow garments made for three-month-olds.

That's not a bad thing. But it does make planning more complex. A good rule of thumb is to register for all sizes your baby will need during its first year. That includes sizes as small as "newborn" up to 12M. Having that variety ensures you always have something on hand as your baby grows before your eyes.

What Types of Clothing Do You Need?

Another thing to consider when creating a baby registry for organic clothing is what garments you'll need. Babies need several distinct pieces. It's a matter of keeping them comfortable while providing easy access to take care of dirty diapers. Here's a good list of essentials to follow:

• Sleepwear sets

• Onesies

• Sleep sacks

• Sweaters

• Hats and caps

• Socks and booties

• Swaddling blankets

• Organic washcloths

Aim to register several of the same garment. Any new parent will tell you it's common to go through multiple outfit changes daily. Having various pieces will save you from doing laundry every day.

Baby Registry Tips

Organic clothing is the way to go for newborns. While there are cheaper alternatives, organic garments are safer. They're free of harmful dyes, bleaching processes and potential chemical contamination. These pieces are also soft on your baby's sensitive skin.

Another tip is to avoid anything tight around the neck, arms or legs. Constrictive clothing can pose a safety risk. Make sure to move up a size if things are looking too tight.
